Doom’s release date is announced: sports a fantastically brutal trailer

Doom is visceral. Doom is brutal. Doom is launching on May 13th, 2016.

That’s right, we finally have a release date for id Software’s latest and greatest shooter, and it’s launching a lot earlier than we expected – we initially expected a Q3 or 4 release date.

Alongside the release date, Doom was also announced to be launching with a premium edition – including:

An exclusive, fully-realized 12” tall collector’s statue of the Revenant, modelled from in-game 3D files and standing on an LED-lit base with “internal, slow-spinning turbine from the UAC facility on Mars.” There’s also a battle-worthy metal case, which is nice.

Finally, the visual portion of this show and tell:

Now, doesn’t Doom just look glorious.
